this is my top 10 list....i have more favorites, but they said only 10...........

As I suspected, I can't limit myself to just 10 records... ;)

busa

Some time ago some interviewer asked me my top 10 records of all time and i came up with about 60 records.... There are so many good records but i narrowed it down to 10 (in alphabetic order.... i can't number them from 1 to 10! IMPOSSIBLE!!!)

I like to know everybody's top 10, so react! It`s fun (and hard!) to do.

This is my top 10 that blew me away when i was just a little shitkid......

BAD BRAINS - Rock For Light (first time i heard it i would't believe they were rasta's!)

BLACK FLAG - Damaged (Music to jump a couple of times off your tv set and then throw the tv out the window!)

DAMNED - Damned Damned Damned (Impossible to not like this one!)

DOA - Bloodied But Unbowed (the original LP version, the CD is totally different! The best songs of Hardcore '81 and Something Better Change!)

TOXIC REASONS - Kill by Remote Control (was hard to choose between Independence and this one, I chose this one because i heard it first....)

It`s pretty simple: (hahaha, figure that out!) If an omnipotent power took away everything in your life except for a sixpack of grolsch, a bottle of wodka, some bierworstjes en 10 records, to what would you listen for the rest of your life?

By mid-1960s, James Brown had developed his signature groove that emphasized the downbeat -- with heavy emphasis "on the one" (the first beat of every measure) -- to etch his distinctive sound, rather than the backbeat that was familiar to many R&B and soul musicians.[4] Brown often cued his band with the command "On the one!," changing the percussion emphasis/accent from the one-two-three-four backbeat of traditional soul music to the one-two-three-four downbeat -- but with an even-note syncopated guitar rhythm (on quarter notes two and four) featuring a hard-driving, repetitive brassy swing. This one-three beat launched the shift in Brown's signature funk music style, starting with his 1964 hit single, "Out of Sight" and his 1965 hit, "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag."
Brown's innovations pushed the funk music style further to the forefront with releases such as "Cold Sweat" (1967), "Mother Popcorn" (1969) and "Get Up (I Feel Like Being A) Sex Machine" (1970), discarding even the twelve bar blues featured in his earlier music. Instead, Brown's music was overlaid with "catchy, anthemic vocals" based on "extensive vamps" in which he also used his voice as "a percussive instrument with frequent rhythmic grunts and with rhythm-section patterns ... [resembling] West African polyrhythms."[5] Throughout his career, Brown's frenzied vocals, frequently punctuated with screams and grunts, channeled the "ecstatic ambiance of the black church" in a secular context.[5] Although "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag" and "Cold Sweat" were widely credited as the prototype songs that launched the funk genre, "Out of Sight" was the breakthrough hit that signaled the shift in Brown's sound to establish funk as a distinct genre.[6]
In a 1990 interview, Brown offered his reason for switching the rhythm of his music: "I changed from the upbeat to the downbeat ... Simple as that, really."[7] According to Maceo Parker, Brown's former saxophonist, playing on the downbeat was at first hard for him and took some getting used to. Reflecting back to his early days with Brown's band, Parker reported that he had difficulty playing "on the one" during solo performances, since he was used to hearing and playing with the accent on the second beat.[8]
Other musical groups picked up on the riffs, rhythms, and vocal style developed by James Brown and his band, and the style began to grow. Dyke & the Blazers based in Phoenix, Arizona, released "Funky Broadway" in 1967, perhaps the first record to have "funky" in the title. Meanwhile, on the West Coast, Charles Wright & the Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band were releasing funk tracks beginning with their first album in 1967, culminating in their classic single "Express Yourself" in 1970.
The Meters defined funk in New Orleans, starting with their Top Ten R&B hits "Sophisticated Cissy" and "Cissy Strut" in 1969. Another group who would define funk in the decade to come were The Isley Brothers, whose funky 1969 #1 R&B hit, "It's Your Thing", signaled a breakthrough in African-American music, bridging the gaps of the rock of Jimi Hendrix and the upbeat soul of Sly & the Family Stone and Mother's Finest.
